Have you clicked the arrow ^ in your system tray to expand the list of icons? If Dropbox is syncing, it should be there. Also, you don't need to go into the application to enable Smart Sync. As long as Dropbox is installed and Smart Sync is enabled for your account, you can simply right-click a file or folder and you…

@"andyve" wrote:IF THESE .ICLOU FILES ARE PLACEHOLDERS, WHY ARE THEY THE SAME SIZE AS THE ORIGINAL FILES? They likely aren't the same size. The operating system is probably reporting the true size of the original files, rather than the actual size of the placeholder.

No, it hasn't. I don't know of any service or file system that allows that, short of scripting it manually. I highly doubt this is something that will ever be integrated.

Is Dropbox enabled as a location in the Files app on your iPad? If not, Dropbox won't be available within Pages. I just tested this on an iPhone XS Max and it's working fine, as long as Dropbox is enabled within the Files app first.

* The trigger for saving a screenshot is the PrintScreen button. There isn't another combination (other than holding ALT or CTRL at the same time as PrintScreen). * This feature is found on the Import tab of Dropbox's Preferences. * Screenshots saved to Dropbox are saved to the Screenshots folder within your Dropbox. *…

There must be some logging in Zscaler. Check the logs to see what it's blocking and you'll likely find your answer.

Have you checked the Application and System event logs in Windows' Event Viewer?

@"Azim88" wrote:Hence, is this something possible that I can save that link to my linked FTP account and can later download with the FTP server where I can get the multiple concurrent connections. No. Dropbox does not support FTP access. There are third-party applciations/services that can provide FTP access to your files,…

@"FadedPoppy" wrote:Could you provide any advice on how I can go about determining what the conflict is that causes this to occur please? There will be an stopcode and probably the faulting file listed on the blue screen. Get those and do a Google search for them. I believe Windows 10 also includes a QR code on a blue…

@"Здравко" wrote:Support is not need. You're confusing support from a technology standpoint (Product A working with Product B) and support from a business standpoint (Company A saying "No, we don't allow that."). Dropbox never officially supported Dropbox being used in such a configuration. They didn't design it to work…

@"chasDSO" wrote:'..There is no common format that is supported on each operating system....' That post doesn't make sense. In terms of Dropbox, yes, it does. Dropbox does not support NTFS for Linux, anything other than NTFS for Windows, etc. Are there workarounds? Yes, apparently, but that doesn't make my comment invalid.…

@"altofocus" wrote:So in short I need multiple units to upload via FTP to Dropbox. ... What is the best way to do this? In short, you can't with Dropbox. There is no way to directly connect to Dropbox using FTP. It's simply not a support protocol. You can do it if you have a computer that you can leave on all the time.…

@"TomasForsman" wrote:I have this exact issue a couple of years later, so something is up. Nothing is up. The feature works just fine (I just tested it successfully). If you're unable to sign-in with Google, you'll want to open a ticket with Support as it may be something specific to your account or your system. A first…

@"GEGJr" wrote: Again, you don't work for Dropbox so I'm not really asking you. Then you need to contact Support and ask them directly as this is primarily a user-to-user platform. The Dropboxers that do respond here are generally not part of the product teams and wouldn't have such answers.

@"GEGJr" wrote: And, why doesn't Dropbox do what they need to do to get Samsung to restore the functionality? They already did. They made the API available to anyone that wants to use it. They can't force Samsung to use it. As to why Samsung doesn't support Dropbox anymore... you'd have to ask them.

They didn't go back to the older API. They simply never updated their apps to use the new API. When the old API was retired, they could no longer integrate with Dropbox without updating their apps to using the new API.

A preview is a download. You might not be explicitly requesting to download a file, but anything you view online is downloaded to your computer. It's just saved in your browser's cache. It may be a preview copy, meaning of lower quality, smaller, etc., but it's still a version of the file. You can't view anything online…

@"Binko" wrote:I am an exissting Dropbox plus user. ... But still don't get the option smartsync on the drop down menu. The added features will be available to existing Plus accounts in the coming week. Dropbox slowly pushes such updates to ensure a successfull rollout.

Eso es correcto. Si baja la suscripción ahora, simplemente cancelará la renovación automática. Mantendrás los beneficios de la cuenta hasta septiembre.

Just use the link. If you need it readily available, bookmark it. * https://www.dropbox.com/photos

For those of you on older iPads, remember that the Dropbox app now requires iOS 10, and older versions of the Dropbox app that would previously connect to Dropbox are being blocked as they are no longer compatible with the service. So for some of you, this isn't a case of a simple problem that can be resolved, and is, in…

anonymous wrote: I thought you could still use dropbox on windows 10. You can, but you also said "Windows 10s" which is different. Windows 10 in S mode doesn't allow desktop applications. It only allows app from the Microsoft App Store. It's more like what you'd find on a tablet; a slimmed-down version of the operating…

@"robtaylor" wrote:i have windows 10s that i use for work. the problem is that i dont have the dropboix icon in my task bar. Do you mean in your system tray? The icon that syncs your files? If so, there's nothing to fix. The Dropbox app from the Microsoft Store doesn't sync your files like the regular Dropbox client, and…

@"spedwig" wrote:Except for looking at file thumbnails in Finder... which is all I'm trying to do in Bridge, which then downloads the whole file. And as I stated earlier, why it does that is a question for Adobe. Dropbox simply downloads the file because Bridge is requesting it. It has no control over the functions within…

It's pretty simple... anything that needs to access a file, whether it's you opening it, a backup process, virus scan, etc., will cause Dropbox to download the file and mark it as Local.

@"spedwig" wrote:you're saying here that merely viewing filenames or image thumbnails in a Bridge window causes a download? Depends on what Bridge is trying to do with the file. Obviously it's trying to access the files in a way that is causing it to download and be marked as Local again. Why? You'd have to ask Adobe that.
